Simulating Southern Hemisphere extra-tropical climate variability with an idealised coupled atmosphere-ocean model

A quasi-geostrophic model of Southern Hemisphere's wintertime atmospheric circulation with horizontal resolution T21 has been coupled to a global ocean circulation model with a resolution of 2° × 2° and simplified physics. This simplified coupled model reproduces qualitatively som...
